-L will send a single query over TLS after negotiating an upgrade using a STARTTLS/CH/TXT query

Finished patch to Unbound to support 'upgrade_tls' configure option. This enables unbound to receive a a STARTTLS/CH/TXT query, send a STARTTLS/CH/TXT response when configured properly, upgrade to SSL and then receive a query over SSL.

June 2014

Started work on Unbound <-> NSD hop

Completing implementation in Unbound to get drill <-> Unbound hop working

Implemented a patch to drill to support T-DNS for a single DNS query

Discussions on the class to be used for the dummy query. The resolver -> authoritative hop might be better implemented with a IN class query.

Start work on Unbound - understand current SSL-upstream implementation

From Willem: LDNS does not have support for asynchronous operation so in the short term it will probably be used in getdns just in synchronous mode so that the implementation of TDNS can continue.

Further work on test framework

May 2014

Current getdns stub implementation cannot support sending of CH class queries as it uses libunbound which denies the query and never sends it onwards. Discussed in getnds meeting 19th May that further implementation of T-DNS in getdns will have to wait until libunbound is replaced with ldns for the stub mode. Current understanding is that Willem is going to tackle this in the next few weeks.

Identified need to support CH class in getdns for dummy STARTTLS query. Start on implementation of this.

This implementation highlighted the need for getdns to gracefully handle refused queries that have no associated data.

Created test harness to create a dummy STARTTLS query

Agreed that initial implementations will use the dummy CH class query (not the TO bit)

Forked getdns. Familiarisation with getdns code base - get it to install and run!

Kick off meetings with T-DNS and getdns teams

Creation of project issue tracker and wiki site

Reading of relevant drafts and documentation - capture any early technical questions
